A.The legislature hereby finds that adequate and modern prison facilities are essential to the safety and welfare of the people of this state, and that contracting for portions of governmental services is a viable alternative considering the fiscal problems facing the state, in addition to the interest on the part of many citizens in reducing the overall size of government.
B.It is hereby determined that efficient and cost-effective facilities need to be made available and that a feasible and economical way to operate these facilities is by authorizing cooperative endeavors with private prison contractors under the authority of this Chapter.
